ZipException: invalid block type

Hi,

I have no idea how to reproduce this. While I was running test repeatedly, suddenly tests started failing, and verting back to versions of my code which previously worked did not help. Those tests use the gradle-tooling-api.

org.gradle.tooling.BuildException: Could not execute build using Gradle distribution 'https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.12-bin.zip'.

I ended up deleting anything in ~/.gradle that looked related to 1.12, and then trying again worked. It would be nice if the error message gave an indication of what file caused this exception.

Folders i deleted:

.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-1.12-bin
.gradle/caches/1.12
.gradle/caches/1.12-20140312230025+0000/
